Playing with dough is great fun for kids, especially when the
result is pizza pockets. Older kids can make the dough themselves; for younger kids
you’ll need to prepare the dough in advance and let them do the kneading. Make an extra
batch and freeze for a quick meal anytime.
Ingredients
1 recipe whole-grain pizza dough or 1 pound (455g) frozen whole
wheat bread dough, thawed
3 Tbsp (30g) cornmeal
6 ounces (170g) mozzarella cheese, shredded (about 1 1/2
cups)
1 cup (240mL) marinara sauce
Favorite pizza toppings for filling
Directions
Preheat oven to 400°F (205°C). Oil a baking sheet and then
sprinkle with cornmeal.
Divide dough into six pieces. On a lightly floured surface, roll out
each piece of dough into a large circle. Spread about 3 Tbsp (45mL) of marinara sauce on one
side of circle. Sprinkle 3 Tbsp (25g) of cheese and other toppings as desired on top of
sauce.
Fold dough in half to form a half moon shape. Firmly pinch the edges
together. Use a fork to poke a few holes in each pocket to let the steam escape. Place pizza
pockets on prepared baking sheet. Bake 25 minutes or until lightly browned.
